What should I do if I encounter a fire while traveling?

1. When opening the door, first touch the door handle with the back of your hand. Don't open the door if the door handle is hot or there is smoke coming out of the door gap. Touch it with the back of your hand first because the metal door handle transfers heat faster than the door frame, and the back of your hand will shrink back when it feels hot.

2. If the door handle is not hot, you can open a crack to see if you can go out, and press your feet on the bottom of the door to prevent the hot air from rushing the door open. If there is a fire outside the door, opening the door will summon a gust of wind and fuel the fire. Opening doors and windows is like fanning the flames. All doors and windows should be closed as close as possible.

3, crawling forward, the smoke spreads from top to bottom, the closer to the ground, the thinner the smoke, the easier it is to breathe, and the clearer the vision.

If the exit is blocked, try to open the window or go to the balcony, and close the balcony door when leaving the balcony.
